Toohey relives Unit's houseboat party
Tuesday 21 December 2010
Jaie sinks a cold beverage during our massive houseboat party. Stay tuned for a sneak peek of the day coming soon.
What's up, guys, I just got back from proably one of the best weeks ever on the Gold Coast! The guys from Unit put on the best party ever - it's definitely one I'm never going to forget.
I arrived on the Goldy on Wednesday morning and had a chilled day at beach and relaxed until the next morning. We met at the jetty at 9.30am where we found four wakeboard boards shuttling us arcross to a two-stroey houseboat near an island. Once we got out there the drinking began, the girls turned up and from there things got really wild!
We were lucky enough to have Bliss N Eso come out, drink and party with us all day, we had kickers set up into the water, a slip & slide, and pretty much everything you need to make one of the best parties ever. I even got to go for a wakeboard behind the new Unit boat.
Thanks Unit, you're the best sponsor ever!

Stacked Weekend!
Wednesday 24 November 2010
This weekend is shaping up to be massive, with a swag of good Aussie and NZ events all coming at once.

Unit team riders Jaie Toohey, Dane Searls and David Girsch will all be on site competing in the Backbone BMX Uprising contest, and will also be available at some specially organised signings throughout the weekend. Stay tuned for details on the signing ot fing more details about the event at WWW.NEWTONSNATION.COM.AU
Also in Sydney, the 2nd last round of Super X will be going off, and Unit rider Tye Simmonds is well and truly in the mix, fighting for a podium spot in the Opens Class. If you can't make it there you should be able to watch it all live on Fox Sports Saturday evening. WWW.SUPERX.COM.AU
In a big blunder of planning, the final round of the Crusty Demons T4D shows also hits Sydney on Saturday night, and it looks to be a crazy big show! Unit team riders Matt Schubring, Kain Saul and Beau Bamburg are all throwing it down for the fans, and will be joined by Robbie Maddison who has confirmed he will be doing the world first roof drop inside the Sydney venue! Maddo still has an injured wrist, and he will really be doing all of this for the fans. We wish Maddo the best with his crazy stunts, and if you want to get along to see it live, head to WWW.CRUSTY.COM
Finally, not forgetting about our New Zealand counterparts, Unit BMX rider Jed Mildon is putting on some crazy big BMX jump contests on the main street of Taupo!

The Countdown Is On For Giants Of Dirt Part 2!
Thursday 11 November 2010
As you may have heard, Dane Searls is back on the Gold Coast right now putting the finishing touches on the Giants Of Dirt, getting them ready for another epic film shoot!!
After a massive crash on his first attempt on the 50 foot set, Dane is back for more, and has made some small tweaks to the set-up, with the hope of making it all the way through the course, which as far as anyone knows is the world's biggest line of BMX jumps!
Matt 'Schuie' Schubring has been putting in a mammoth effort to help the jumps be ready for Wednesday's shoot, digging, shaping, welding and just generally putting in the hours. The jumps are on his property, and he has taken the task personally, so we have to say a massive thanks to Schuie!
Dane's good friend Junior has also made the trip up from Sydney to help on the shovels, and offer Dane some company throughout the countless hours of digging.
Schuie will be holding a massive Crusty Demons film shoot at his property after the Brisbane show this Saturday night, and than as soon as the dust has settled, Dane will be up to try and conquer the giants once again. Stay tuned for news as soon as it happens, as well as some of the most incredible BMX footage ever produced!
